Well, I agree. Anyone can change, and we can change ourselves. However, I think you will still (for the most part) feel the need to explain more than might be needed. I don't see a problem with explaining yourself though, and if people don't like me for it then tough. I just know that for myself, I won't ever be able to get out of that. I will always feel the need to explain why I did whatever it was I did, and to have a reason for it. Maybe you won't always have to, though. I hope you find a way to not have to at all because life is much easier without dealing with that, haha.
